Doddle is an excellent resource, and I would highly recommend it - but there are some issues in terms curriculum alignment and the quality of the resources that are available.
Mark Lee found doddle-science:
- Significantly improves school processes“Improve quality and consistency of homework and cover work in lesson”

I think Doddle has helped to reduce workload and has provided a framework for assessing KS3 however I think more CPD/Training or 'sharing best practice' workshops would benefit schools more
Ghufran Ahmed found doddle-science:
- Significantly improves school processes“Has made assessment at KS3 easier and more streamlined”
- Significantly provides school data“We obtain our full reports for KS3 through Doddle thereby reducing teacher workload.”

- Moderately improves school processes“Streamlined reporting procedures Improved parental engagement Clear homework strategy”

It's great for HW but Doddle assessment was seen by many to be a duplicate system for data
Graham Birrell found doddle-science:
- Moderately improves school processes“HW access and standardisation”
- Slightly provides school data

Jan 2019
Excellent for specific departments but difficult to implement successfully for every subject. The extra data entry for staff is a negative
Michael Thomas found doddle-science:
- Moderately improves school processes“Linked to student reports, Homework resources, feedback forms”
- Moderately provides school data“Informs working at grades to support summative %s. Provides H/W usage by staff and students. ”

Doddle has provided us with a solution to assessment without levels that not only provides tracking data for staff but provides resources and information to students and parents. Combined these are a powerful tool in bringing together feedback, reporting, parental engagement and student progress monitoring and support. To develop further the reports available from the Insight platform need to be made more intuitive and adapted to provide clearer comparison data when comparing groups of students e.g. SEND or PP.
Paul Letch found doddle-science:
- Moderately improves school processes“Doddle allows us to gather Key Stage 3 data via RAG assessments on an easy to use platform. This enable parents and students to see where gaps in their learning are via the portal thus removing the need for a spereate reporting process. The resources allow us to set interventions and tasks to fill gaps. Parents are also able to use the resources to support their child in this process.”
- Significantly provides school data“We have been using the Doddle Insight BI platform. This allows us to see whole school trends and subject level data. Individual student reports can be run for each subject. These two combined allow us to report data to external and internal groups. The data is then used to plan actions in response such as in class support, lesson planning and individual 1-1 sessions.”

Doddle has numerous good points such as homework setting and resources but the grades Doddle generates are not fully accurate and this has caused staff stress trying to get the system to work.
David Pendlebury found doddle-science:
- Moderately improves school processes“Helping to set homework and set resources for pupils in AP or isolation. ”
- Does not significantly provide school data“We have found that the data generated for grades is not accurate. This is mainly due to the fact that Doddle assesses in a different way to their final GCSE exams. ”

Jan 2019
Doddle has been fantastic and those that work for Doddle providing support and training. We have gone from using it as a homework platform to progress and parental engagement. It's brilliant and I cannot fault it. Its pupil, staff and parent friendly and due to it being assessable for all it works well. It would be ace if there was an app that you could access then it can be completed/data entered/viewed at any point on a smart device.
Abbi Williams found doddle-science:
- Significantly improves school processes“AFM Plans using Doddle Progress”
- Significantly provides school data“AFL Plans using the RAG data ”

Fairly easy to use VLE for both Students and Teachers. Loads of self marking exam papers and loads of helpful PowerPoints and resources
Declan found doddle-science:
- Slightly improves school processes“Used to help students remember Home-work Tasks”
- Does not significantly provide school data“We have started to try and use data to help out reports of the amount of work students do outside of school. Some work has also been done to help with attainment 8”
